How long has Steve Kean been a professional manager? Don't blame him blame Venky's as they sacked a manager with a fantastic reputation in Sam Allaryce and hired a youn up and coming manager. He had to get his break somewhere and it's not his fault that it was at a Premier League club.

How do you expect the team to perform when it's under that level of criticism? It may be the same team, but the atmosphere's totally different, the players are behind the manager but they're worried about the scrutiny which has made them too cautious and their play has suffered.

I don't think the atmosphere affects the players, It has only gone bad in the last 2/3 months....what was the excuse for the other 9 months?

Venkys are the main problem, but it is not them that control some very bad decisions during match days.
You say up and coming manager, he wasn't even an assistant manager at Rovers before he stabbed Allardyce in the back and took his job.

Teams can go through spells of problems, eg. Tim Cahill and Louis Saha not ebing able to score for Everton, which in the Blackburn case has caused the fans to turn on the manager which then leads back to my other point.

I hope that the Netherlands win, but my bet will be Germany. We (I'm dutch) only make a chance when all our good players are available. That's our biggest fail. If you look at the Spanish, the German and the English reserves, and then at the dutch ones, you can see that there is a big difference. So even when players like Van Persie and Robben are great, if they aren't there, we're just as good as Poland.

I'm just wondering, what will happen if Germany and Spain face each other again...

I think Germany'd win. if they show their play as they did against the netherlands they can win against anyone.
Now that david villa has broken his leg, I think he'll put either Callejon or llorente. Spain has some awesome subs.

Well the last games he played for the dutch national team he did very will. that was quite a while ago due to his injury.
Well we have Kuijt and Babel for that position, so Afellay would bring some more, i don't know how to say it, inspiration?
